Benefits of technology

The present invention aims to provide an imaging device that can capture clear videos that reflect the user's photography intent without missing a chance to take a photo.

Problems solved by technology

However, most users do not edit such video pictures because of the complicated editing processes involved, and usually only store the video picture in a recording medium such as a tape or hard disk without reviewing the video picture.
Even if the user reviews the vide picture, it may not be a particularly favorable video picture except for the person who has photographed it and the people familiar with it.
However, with the measure related to the scenario mode photographing, a photographing chance may be missed while selecting a scenario under a condition which can not previously figure out a position of a subject such as at a children's sport festival or does not have a time for selecting a scenario such as a fast progress of a sport festival.
As a result, a long video picture of not necessarily very good quality is photographed.

embodiment

[0032]Hereinafter, an embodiment of a digital camera as an imaging device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(General Constitution of Digital Camera)

[0033]FIG. 1 is a top view of a digital camera according to the embodiment. FIG. 2 is front view of the digital camera illustrated in FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a back view of the digital camera illustrated in FIG. 1.

[0034]Referring to FIG. 1, the top surface of the digital camera includes a sub LCD1, shutter button SW1, mode dial SW2, microphone 2 and speaker 3. The sub LCD 1 displays the number of photographable still images or the like. The shutter button SW1 is pressed when photographing a still image or a moving image, and is used as an operation section for designating the start and stop of the recording of moving image data to the after-described recording section in a moving image mode. The mode dial SW2, microphone 2 and speaker 3 will be described later.

[0035]The shutter but...

Abstract

An imaging device includes an imaging section configured to receive a light beam from a subject, and output an image signal, an image processor configured to produce image data based on the image signals input from the imaging section, a recording section configured to record the image data from the image processor as moving image data, an operation section configured to designate start and stop of recording of the moving image data, an attention point moving image designation section configured to designate an attention point moving image as a set of moving images which are stored by being clipped from a moving image, an attention point moving image time designation section configured to designate a clipping time of the attention point moving image, and a controller configured to control the recording section such that the attention point moving image for the clipping time is recorded in the recording section.

Description

PRIORITY CLAIM[0001]The present application is based on and claims priority from Japanese Patent Application No. 2011-197149, filed on Sep. 9, 2011, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to an improvement in a moving image photographable imaging device.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]Unlike photographing of a picture in which a fixed photographing object is captured at one moment to be recorded, photographing of a moving image with a digital video camera, digital camera or the like requires a photographing technique such as planning of a story, camerawork, or the like in order to obtain a good story-like video picture. For this reason, not everyone can necessarily perform photographing in order to easily obtain a good video picture.[0006]On of the main reasons that a good video picture can not be obtained is because a long real-time video picture is often s...
